I wondered if anyone had done this?
The instructions say if you have the spare steel wheel option .. which I do, that this part can be removed on a its own.
You must carefully pull it out from the left side.
Somewhat confusingly, It says when you replace the rear upright boot liner, to tuck the cloth edging back under the rear floor section 2 ( thats the first section of boot floor from the upright section backing the rear seats).
Although it says the rear upright can come out on its own, would you rip the cloth seal if you dont take out the first section of the floor, before pulling the back out.
Despite the instructions, it sounds like it might be safer and easy to get the vertical part out and replaced, with the boot floor at the back removed first?
And am I correct one just unscrews the 2 boot floor netting anchors?
